Monumental Modern Color Field Painting on Canvas after Morris Louis 1960s
-
Description
This striking mid-20th century painting captivates with its vibrant horizontal stripes, each hue meticulously rendered to create a harmonious yet dynamic composition. The artist's masterful use of prismatic colors evokes a sense of joy and wonder, drawing the viewer into a world of vivid imagination. Anchoring the piece is a bold chunk of gold leaf at the bottom, adding a touch of opulence and grounding the exuberant palette above. This juxtaposition of the radiant spectrum with the luxurious gold leaf creates a visually stunning and thought-provoking work of art. Measuring over 8 1/2 feet tall, this monumental painting is a testament to the artist's innovative vision and technical prowess, making it a standout addition to any discerning collection. It was acquired from the estate of a prominent Dallas antique collector. Although it unsigned, it closely resembles the work of Morris Louis and could turn out to be an undocumented treasure.
